This video of economist David McWilliams talking about the Scottish economy popped up on my facebook newsfeed earlier.

McWilliams is well respected in Ireland and has a reputation for predicting the 2008 crash. The short film is from 2014 and was broadcast on Irish TV but I don’t remember it getting any publicity over here. The film is notable in that McWilliams is optimistic about Scotland being able to be a success as an independent country.

He has some interesting insights about the deficit, how we could grow our economy and project fear.
